Celtic win over Heart

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou hailed his side’s “resilience and grit” as they survived a second-half

scare at Hearts to remain four points off the Scottish Premiership summit.

As the half progressed, the Bhoys began to dictate and broke the deadlock in emphatic style when Hatate’s first goal for the club,

a searing drive from long range, was too powerful for Gordon.

And just eight minutes later, Postecoglou’s men had their second when the impressive O’Riley’s low cross from the right

found Giakoumakis, who guided in a delightful backheel flick.

But the hosts improved after the interval as Liam Boyce pulled one back for the Jambos before passing up the chance to equalise when

his penalty hit a post.

This win and Boyce’s penalty miss in isolation could be pinpointed as a massive turning point in the title race come May,

should Postecoglou’s men manage to catch leaders Rangers, who they host next midweek.
